ReadyNAS 104 Share has dissapeared
Hi there...
After spending a good couple of hours browsing through these forums and seeing people with similar issues, i have tried all the suggestions on here but can't seem to get my one of my shares back.
I have 2 Volumes... the 1st volume share is still there, but the share for the 2nd volume has dissapeared. I've tried modifying the /etc/fontrview/samba/Shares.conf file with no luck. I've tried the solution over here (https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS-in-Business/RN104-Share-Missing-After-Uncommanded-Power-On/m-p/1383316#) with on luck either. For some reason when I creater a new SAMBA share, can't seem to find it when I SSH in... its not at the root level. If I create an FTP share, I can see a folder created under /var/ftp/
The data is still there when I WinSCP/Putty into the NAS and the used/free space looks correct in the Volumes area of the ReadyNAS admin page. Also, I'm not able to access the share either from any machines - form what I read, some people were still able to even if the share had dissapeared from the Shares page.
I'm not sure when this share dissapeared... only started noticing it today but the last thing I did on the NAS was install transmission a couple of weeks ago.. I doubt this had anything to do with it.
Any ideas on how I might be able to get the share back?
Thanks in advance!

My best guess is that the volume isn't mounted properly, but probably still exists (though possibly damaged). If it's not mounted, then the directory that is it's mount point can't contain a BTRFS sub-volume, which is what a share is, so creating a new one will fail. I don't know if the mods can gain enough insight from your logs or not, but I'd try that first. Does it show up in the mount list (cat /proc/mounts)? What do you see when you do a btrfs subvolume list /data or ls /data -all (or whatever the volume name is in place of "data")?
